Google doesn't like the site - thinks it contains malware and/or trojans.

"Site is listed as suspicious - visiting this web site may harm your computer."

"Malicious software includes 246 trojan(s), 3 scripting exploit(s)"

This notice just started to appear yesterday. Is the problem with the site or my computer? If it's my computer, how can I fix it?
